This week marked the beginning of the 8th Annual Toy Project for the 8th graders. Dr. Robert Yonover (Jesse, ’07), has been an integral part of kicking off our project for the last 8 years. As the founder of SeeRescue, he shares his knack for developing valuable, life-saving tools from very simple ideas. His inspiring and engaging presentation starts the wheels moving in our young inventors’ minds. Stay tuned for the winners of this year’s Toy Fair, to be held on Friday, May 16.
